Britain's richest family, the Grosvenors, headed by the Duke of Westminster, has a fortune of around £7.9 billion, which is more than the bottom 10 per cent of the population combined.

The Grosvenors' wealth derives largely from owning 190 acres of real estate in London's Belgravia, near Buckingham Palace, according to the Forbes rich list.
